Common Wild Rose vs Northern BayberryRosa woodsii Myrica pensylvanica SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
Common Wild Rose produces attractive pink roses and edible bright red rosehips. This tough, native shrub is a beautiful, low-maintenance addition to any garden. Common Wild Rose is very similar to Alberta (Prickly) Wild Rose but with fewer thorns.
Northern Bayberry makes an excellent hedge or feature shrub. It will retain its leaves in warmer climates but drops them in colder areas. They produce blue-grey berries that have a wax coating on them that can be used to make candles or soaps. COMMON WILD ROSE QUICK FACTSNORTHERN BAYBERRY QUICK FACTS
